Rain Like Tears [Senryu]

by Tammie   Sep 20, 2006


The rain makes her sad
Drops fall like tears on her cheek
Slowly rolling down.

    I had to comment this one for you.. it seemed so lonely, tehe.

    This was a great Senryu, aswel. I loved it how you compared the emotions to rain in the first line. Very nicely done! Keep it up! 5/5
